Carola - Forgiven

I was lost I had nowhere to go Where to turn I just did not know I was ship wrecked, no harbour in sight Drifting on in an endless night But as I looked beyond the horizon I discovered a sun that was rising He reached down from the sky above And embraced me with his love It is higher than the highest mountain Fresher than a sparkling fountain Deeper than the deepest sea I can't believe what's happened to me I can hardly keep this feeling inside Because I feel like a newborn child And the things that used to hurt me are gone I've got strength enough to carry on I lifted me eyes to heaven And now I know that I am forgiven It's all because of what he's done for me By his love I've been set free Lord, you give it to me It is wider than the widest river Finer than the finest silver Purer than the purest gold I'm talking about the love that fills my soul It is higher than the highest mountain Fresher than a sparkling fountain Deeper than the deepest sea I can't believe what's happened to me I'm talking about the love that has set me free
